Ekali Merges Trap And R&B With Magical New Single "Past Life" Featuring Opia

Ekali has had a monstrous year. 2017 marked the future trap producer’s official signage to Skrillex founded label OWSLA. The Vancouver based producer also showered the year with an official Snakehips remix, mixes on Diplo & Friends and Triple J in addition to his own Awakening mix series, and a monumental Porter Robinson tribute alongside QUIX. Ekali sparked his OWSLA signing with his massive Denzel Curry featured single “Babylon”, which garnered so much attention that it received a remix from Skrillex himself. Making it hard to follow an enormous track like “Babylon”, Ekali has enlisted indie electronic starlets Opia for an impressive follow up single “Past Life”. The second single off his forthcoming OWSLA EP is a majestic downtempo chill trap experience with soulful snaps and deep, thunderous synths filling the space between Opia’s sultry R&B vocals. His latest track shows a softer, more refined side of the trap producer, brilliantly melding laidback trap with future R&B. “Past Life” takes you back to Ekali’s “Meet In The Middle” remix with crisp, clean production that creates this luxuriously ethereal soundscape. Stream Ekali and Opia’s magical new single “Past Life” and be on the lookout for his forthcoming debut OWSLA EP.
